For Cyberlink PowerDVD 5

I just thought I would mention a few things that I think would might
be nice for a future release relating to Cyberlinks CLEV (Eagle
Vision) mode.

1. Make it compatible other formats and not just MPEG1 and 2. Ex.
MPEG-4 (Divx)

2. When capturing a screenshot from a MPEG file or DVD let the
capture actually capture the image with the CLEV enhancements on.

I capture from a digital cable box right out of the S-video port and
into my video capture/tuner card. All of the pictures lack good and
bright color and look bland. The TV will put out much better and
brighter color on composite.

When I run the cap (MPEG-2) through PowerDVD it looks bright and
colorful again.

thats the overlay colours, you need to use a graphics prog
for the screenshot colours/brightness

I was talking about Cyberlinks CLEV (Eagle Vision) mode. That wont do
its work on a divx file.

Hmmm... I took it into photoshop and added a little color saturation
and that helped some. I wonder why it is recorded so bland. On the
TV the colors look rich and bright. I really like the way it looks
under CLEV but I just wish I could capture it that way.

What exactly is the overlay colors. In my video capture program
(Cyberlink VirtualVCR) it does have a option to overlay or non-overlay
video. I wonder what that does. I know what the word overlay means
of course but I can't see the difference.
